Where to play in London/Europe?

Originally posted in June but got 0 responses - now with more detailed title:

I'm going to be in Europe this summer. Namely, London and Bolzano, Italy. I know there are casinos all around in Europe, but where might be a good place to play for an American who only speaks English who's never been to a proper casino (only played online, home games, and charity games)?

What are the lowest buy-in tournaments these places might have? How about cash games? Or SNGs? I prefer tournaments but I dabble in low-stakes cash too. I mainly just want to play for fun without breaking the bank.

I'd appreciate info either on where to go or where to look to find places. When I Google London casinos, I just don't know where to start. Any advice appreciated. Places accessible by the Underground (as applicable to London) greatly preferred. Thanks!

I'm looking at either the Grosvenor Victoria Casino or the Casino at the Empire (Caesars property) in London for lowstakes cash games and small buy-in tournaments. Both places look nice online.

Any suggestions for a first time casino player? Anything I should know about playing in UK that's different from US or just generally of note?

Please respond anyone if you have any idea - I get there tomorrow

any advice? don't drink to many free drinks

and Aspers casino by the underground station stratford has cashgames 24/7 and tournaments to the plenty, so I would recommend that place out of them all

Here is there website> http://www.aspersstratford.co.uk/ if you want to check them out. there you will find there tournament schedule and promotions and the cash games that they will have available.

It looks the casino is a very elegant and classy.

Aspers casino is also holding charity events where some celebs are expected to come they are also holding a wpt satellite soon if they didn't already have that

I hope this helped and good luck at the tables!

re: Poker & Where to play in London/Europe?

Thanks for the reply! Looks like a very nice place. Unfortunately looks like the only MTTs they have this week are satellites to the WPT and then the WPT events themselves, but I'm only in London until Thursday, so those aren't an option for me.

However I couldn't find anything about cash games or SNGs.
